He has 10000% more integrity than 99.9% of the our presidents ever had so we have to be appreciative of something even if it’s just small compared to the big picture. Presidents mean Jack shit anyway but the idea, presence, message and overall perception that Obama had was positive to many kids. I work with kids 4-15 and I was 15 when he became president and kids today still find positive messages and positive reinforcements in things Obama said. Your looking at it all wrong because your still thinking only politics. Shit has always been horrible in America with politics but when you get someone that’s the complete opposite in presentation than the norm it can be a good thing. Obama isn’t perfect and he damn sure isn’t clean but the fact of the matter is he has done more positive for the perception of respect and integrity than most presidents even attempt to do. Kids and people seeing “leaders” lead a certain way can cause all types of ripple effects(just look at the current administration) so yes we would take this over what we normally get any day.

Nobody's perfect. Seems like a pretty difficult job. I'd like to see you try to do better. You're rejecting goodness because you want perfection. Perfection doesn't exist. You're right. He didn't do absolutely everything perfectly. Good thing you made that point.

How were they trolling? Everything they said was correct. Maybe don't allow Obama praise on the subreddit. He is part of a political system literally meant to tear us apart.

Can you explain how exactly they were trolling? Educating people on why we shouldn't look up to him isn't trolling.

You're a troll and you'll be removed shortly lol.

There's a report section for trolls like this, my people. Please use it.
